It can be done via NAT, but if IPv6 is available, simply use that,
maybe via a free HE.net tunnel that gives you a static /48 subnet.

Some maybe use it, but I haven't received an email with such headers
yet.
sendmail supports that, so have a look at it.
It also supports SMTP and various other protocols, so you can contact
via SMTP too.

UUCP over TCP-IP is being used. Maybe some still use UUCP via serial
line, but that is tricky via VoIP.

Eternal-september.org provides news via UUCP and 7 sites make use of it.
